After starting under a scorching sun and finishing after an almost three-hour rain delay, Jannik Sinner got past the always sticky and tricky Adrian Mannarino. The Frenchman played a very focused match, especially with his serve, while the Italian never quite found his comfort zone, but with some halfway decent tennis, he managed to win a tightly contested match with a lot of traps along the way 6-4, 7-6(4), after an hour and 51 minutes. Once the scare was overcome, the world number one advances to the quarterfinals of ATP Cincinnati and awaits the winner of the match between Benjamin Bonzi and Felix Auger-Aliassime.
